Description: Northcote Street looking west from its junction with Stanley Street. The kink in the road in the middle distance (where the carts are parked) marks the transition to Holme Street with Upper Brook Street going of to the left. This view shows the original narrow width of Northcote Street; subsequently (at some date between 1899 and 1913) it was widened and the vacant area to the south built-up. Indeed, the stacked materials and battered railings may indicate that this process is already underway.
The houses on the right were still standing in 2008 but all of the others in the background had long been demolished, replaced by a large 1960s flats development fronting onto Tamworth Road.
